PC - Tabula Rasa - Eurogamer: Tabula Rasa is not in trouble, says NCsoft

Eurogamer writes: "NCsoft has told Eurogamer that Tabula Rasa has a growing player base and is not in as much trouble as recent financial reports seem to suggest.

"Tabula Rasa has a dedicated player base, which is growing month on month," said an NCsoft Europe spokesman.

"Tabula Rasa offers players a different kind of MMO experience, enhancing our portfolio of game titles. The game play mechanics are very different to that of a typical MMO - those who have experienced the game have recognised these innovative features and applauded them.

'A recent European trial promotion was met with great demand; we will be doing a similar promotion later in the year.'"

Dev Corner: Tabula Rasa - State of the Game

PC - Tabula Rasa - Dev Corner: Tabula Rasa - State of the Game

Starr Long, the Producer of Richard Garriott's Tabula Rasa, updates us on the state of the game, as well as moving forward to the exciting things to come:

"I would be remiss if I don't clarify the matter of rumored 'massive layoffs' within NCsoft North America and the Tabula Rasa team. While the game has not taken off as quickly as we had hoped, we also launched in an insanely competitive time frame, with several well-known intellectual properties launching follow up products at the same time. However, the fact of the matter is that we are transitioning from a pre-launch crunch-mode development team to a live service team. This is standard in our industry-you ramp up to launch a game and then ramp down once it's live. This is what we are doing over the next several weeks, and it only affects the Tabula Rasa team. Once all is said and done, we will still have a substantial live team for industry standards. As you can see by the new features we're working on, we're still planning on lots of great content and updates all year long."

PC - Tabula Rasa - Tabula Rasa: financial disaster

NCSoft CFO calls it, Austin arm downsized, Garriott to become a space tourist.

NCSoft's chief financial officer, Lee Jae-ho, has told The Korean Times that Tabula Rasa has proven to be a financial disaster.

Featuring heavy involvement from Richard Garriott, the sci-fi MMO was supposed to rattle the genre and take it to the next evolutionary step courtesy of the game's real-time combat and battlefield strategy. But it's gone down like a cup of cold sick.

Garriott attacks Tabula Rasa beta

PC News | Tabula Rasa

Dec 6, 2007 Richard Garriott has attacked the beta test of his sci-fi MMO Tabula Rasa, saying that game has been hurt by inviting too many testers. Speaking about marketing in relation to the game, Garriott said, "I actually think the biggest mistake was made not by the marketing department, but by the development team. We invited too many people into the beta when the game was still too broken." "We burned out some quantity of our beta-testers when the game wasn't yet fun," he added. "As ...
